I bet most of their traffic are generated by their partner websites

Even more interesting is another Yehey! founder also chanced upon this post while (shamefully) egoogling.

Anyway - yeah, fun times. Haven’t been at the new office for years - and can’t remember the last time I even visited the site.

Kaban.com.ph? Never heard of it ’till now. I guess perhaps it’s cause that site isn’t targeted to Filipinos - the prominent, front page photo is even that of a Caucasian!

So where _is_ Yehey! headed for, really?

@Dave: “Web 2.0″ is about as nebulous as Yehey’s direction, from where I’m standing.

What’s more interesting is one of the Yehey! founder “stumbled upon” this post

Yes, Migs. Smells like 1999. I’m nudging Donald Lim to do something Web 2.0.

Oh by the way, Alistair & I are scrounging for VC money. Any takers?

Thanks, Abe. Cheers!

Should be interesting to see how they would prove that becoming a global behemoth.

Interesting comments for a CEO to make in a public forum before trying to float an IPO.

We’re going public to get more money and become a global behemoth. In the same statement he mentions one of their major properties and admits they don’t even know where they are positioned or should be positioned.

It’s as if this guy thinks going public is sort of like hooking your hose to a water faucet and turning on the tap, then figuring out where to spray it. Most people offering up IPO capital expect to see more of a plan and feel that the CEO has more situational awareness of his company.

Shall be interesting to watch.
